V1.Chapter 117

Returning to Shushan always made Ye Wen feel very relaxed, especially with Liu Muyan as an absolute drag along the way.

Speaking of going up the mountain, it was quite a struggle. Liu Muyan's weak body and bones could not support him to climb the mountain without interruption. In addition, Ye Wen didn't want to help him, but only wanted him to go up the mountain with his own strength, so he stopped and stopped along the way. Stop, even if you are close to your hometown, you can only head to the top of the mountain at a slow speed.

The old man Chen Yizhong doesn't need to worry about Ye Wen. This old doctor has been walking around for most of his life. His body is stronger than that of Liu Muyan. Following the two of them along the way, he didn't even breathe. Ye Wen thought that this old doctor also possessed great skills.

"Old man, I just know how to keep in good health, how can I know the magical art of training Qi?"

From Chen Yizhong, Ye Wen also learned about the general situation of the martial arts in the Central Plains. It turns out that the skill of cultivating inner qi is an undisclosed secret even in the Central Plains, except for some powerful martial arts schools that can teach the cultivation of internal energy. However, only those sects that dominate the mountains have these cultivation methods. If you don't worship the mountain gate, it is more difficult to learn these things than ascend to the sky.

"Of course, there are also some lone knights who will accept someone as an apprentice in order to pass on their superb skills!" It's just that the probability is so low that it can be ignored. After all, the Central Plains is so big. The probability of the other party being able to take a fancy to your aptitude is no higher or even lower than the probability of being admitted to a great sect and then being favored by an elder in a certain sect.

"However, the martial arts in the Central Plains is still much more lively. Except for those masters, there are a lot of third- and fourth-rate martial arts people, and even many people who are not top-notch. If you randomly walk into a town and bump into someone, you may be a person in the Jianghu. "

It is precisely because of these huge numbers of middle and lower class martial arts practitioners that this arena is so lively and interesting.

Along the way, Ye Wen didn't feel bored listening to these things, no matter how slow Liu Muyan walked, he was not afraid, he just waited with a smile on his side.

"Master, how far is your old school's sect?" Liu Muyan held his right hand, still holding a pen, not daring to move, but his body was already twisted, leaning against the big tree as if screaming. Sludge on top. If someone pushes lightly at this time, he may turn into a rolling gourd and roll directly down the mountain.

Ye Wen raised his head and looked around, curled his lips and said, "It's only halfway up the mountain, there's still half of it!"

Originally, Ye Wen wanted to go to Shushan County first, and ask Li Fu if there were any good blacksmiths, because people in the government knew more about these - blacksmiths were semi-monitored professions that had to be registered.

Even most people in the government know which blacksmiths are better. Ye Wen didn't think of this section before, and he suffered from unfamiliarity with the world. If Chen Yizhong hadn't learned that Ye Wen wanted to find a blacksmith, he asked him How is the relationship with the people in the government, and then he clarifies the key, he probably still can't think of this.

"Inexperience kills people!"

After knowing these things, Ye Wen was no longer in a hurry to find the blacksmith, but was going to go back to Shushan directly, first settle the two people down, report their safety by the way, and then take some time to visit Li Fu and Li Butou in person , Ask if there is any skilled blacksmith in this county or the surrounding villages.

As long as he asked these questions, he didn't even need to invite them in person, he just sent a disciple to make arrangements. There is no reason why the blacksmith should come to think of it-the Shushan faction provided him with materials, accommodation, and wages, as long as he made weapons and a set of tools for the faction, no one would refuse such a good deed.

The only trouble is that privately hiring blacksmiths to make weapons violates the imperial decree. However, people in the Jianghu, no matter how righteous they are, will violate the law in certain things. As long as they don't intentionally oppose the court, they will not make things difficult for Ye Wen if he wants to come to Shushan County.

"Besides, when the Shushan faction develops and grows stronger, the county government will have to come to pump some oil and water! Everyone is happy, and they shouldn't come here to find anything uncomfortable!"

After making a decision, Ye Wen brought the two of them directly to Mount Shu, and greeted Xu Ping, who was on duty today, at the foot of the mountain. The third disciple was very happy to see the master return, and wished he could fly up the mountain to inform everyone that the master was back. up. It was Marven Ye who reprimanded: "What are you talking about? You are so impatient!"

Then he asked casually: "We Shushan faction haven't encountered any major incidents these days, right?"

Xu Ping thought for a while, and finally nodded: "Except for the destruction of Zhengquan School and Wang Shu's death, there is nothing important!"

Ye Wen was taken aback this time, and was startled in his heart: "Wang Shu is dead?" But his face was still flattered, he nodded and said: "Got it, I'll go back to the mountain!"

However, although Ye Wen learned the news that surprised him, he was still not in a hurry. Maybe it was because the weight of Wang Shu and Zhengquanmen in his heart had dropped a few notches. A country sect that I can't even understand after tossing around the mountain is in my heart.

At the beginning, Wang Shu was severely injured, and then he was allowed to leave. After taking over all the properties of the Zhengquan Sect, he knew that this small sect would be destroyed soon. Even if Ye Wen didn't take the initiative to attack, he would not last long. .

It's just that Wang Shu died when he was leaving. I think there must be many twists and turns. Judging from Xu Ping's expression, this matter must have a lot to do with his Shushan faction, but at that time there were two Xu Ping beside him. It's inconvenient for him to speak clearly because someone he doesn't know is by his side.

"After returning to the mountain, just ask my junior sister carefully!"

Looking back at Liu Muyan, the scholar finally stood up again under Chen Yizhong's massage, and he seemed to have recovered a lot. Since following Ye Wen from Xiangfeng City all the way to Shushan County, although Liu Muyan's body is still weak, it is much stronger than before. Although he still looks tired at this time, he is not unable to walk.

"continue……"

Ye Wen's words represented the start of the mountain climbing journey of the three of them again.

This time, the few people were not walking as fast as before. Apart from the fact that the mountain was getting steeper, their physical strength was not as good as before. Originally, the three of them only took half a day to walk half of the way, but the second half was full. After waiting for half a day, when the three of them arrived at the gate of Shushan School, it was already dusk.

Because of the dim light, when the three of them suddenly came to the door, they called the two guarding disciples to be vigilant for a long time, and it took a while before they realized that the first person was actually their own head.

"The master is back!"

After waving at the other person, the disciple rushed into the faction to report, and only one person came forward to say hello: "Disciple welcomes the head!"

"Yeah!" Ye Wen could see clearly that this disciple was Zhou Ding, and he wasn't considered a talented person, but doing things for others reassured him, so he left the matter of arranging guards to this disciple. Zhou Ding also seems to know that his talent is limited, and he can only achieve it by making contributions to the sect if he wants to enter the inner sect of Shushan, so he is very diligent, and often guards the gate by himself.

That day when Huang Rongrong came to mess around, it was Zhou Ding who stood in the hall and almost drew his sword, and he was the one who took Guo Aniu down to settle down.

"It's hard work for you to stand guard all day! I remember that you are proficient in swordsmanship. Come and find me tomorrow morning after class!"

Hearing this, Zhou Ding immediately understood that it was the headmaster's kindness and wanted to teach him personally, and he was so happy that he didn't know what to say when he was excited, so he was stunned for a while before saying: "Thank you for the kindness of the headmaster! "

Ye Wen nodded, and didn't talk to Zhou Ding any more, but continued walking inside with Chen Yizhong and Liu Muyan. At this time, the people of the Shushan faction had already got the news, and the most senior of the two factions, Ning Ruxue and Xu Xian, came out to welcome them first.

Seeing his junior sister suddenly, Ye Wen suddenly wanted to go up and give her a hug, but just passed by, Ning Ruxue covered up the happy expression she had just shown, and said with another expressionless face: " I'm home!"

"Ok!"

Ning Ruxue looked up and down, and found that Ye Wen was neither injured nor missing anything, her eyes couldn't help showing some reassurance, but she said to herself, "It's fine if nothing is missing!"

Ye Wen scratched his head: "This... I really lost something, let's talk about it in private later!"

"Privately?" Xu Xian happened to walk to the side at this time, and said something casually when he heard the words, and then realized that this didn't seem to be what he should ask, so he laughed twice: "Haha, I didn't hear anything!"

Ye Wen looked again, and found that Aunt Zhao, Zhou Zhiruo, and Yue Ning were all there. After greeting them one by one, he went to the back first, and also greeted Chen Yizhong and Liu Muyan by the way.

There are generally no prohibitions in the front court and front yard of the Shushan School, but there will be many taboos in the future. After passing the main hall, there is another big square. This is the place where all the disciples perform martial arts. As long as they are disciples of the Shushan School, there is no taboo. It's just that most of the people who practice here are outer disciples, and the inner disciples will find places to practice alone.

Then there are two roads further inside, one leads to the place where the disciples of the outer sect rest and eat. There are many houses built next to each other, just like a small city. The other road leads to the core of the Shushan School, where there are the houses of the direct disciples, the small practice room, and the residences of Ye Wen and other masters and their younger brothers and sisters. At present, the biggest treasure of the Shushan faction is only known to the three brothers and sisters in the whole faction.

At this time, everyone moved forward, and they went to the inner gate. All the disciples dispersed after arriving at the square. Only the core people followed Ye Wen into it all the way, and then came to a larger house - here is A place for talking and discussing things or setting up banquets.

The seats were all ready-made, and Ye Wen sat down on the front seat, and said to everyone: "Sit!" Then they started talking about business.

First, I introduced Chen Yizhong to everyone, and said: "This is the genius doctor I invited on the way back. From now on, he will also be a member of my Shushan School. Anyone in the school who has an emergency can go to Doctor Chen. In addition, Doctor Chen Not included in the seniority of this faction."

Everyone nodded, and greeted Chen Yizhong one by one. After all, although people who walk in the rivers and lakes may not necessarily suffer from headaches, injuries are always inevitable, especially internal injuries. Getting to know a good doctor is like saving one more life in many cases.

Although I don't know how good this Dr. Chen is, it's better than the current one who doesn't even know medicine.

"I also plan to open a medical clinic opposite our Youjian Inn. In the future, Dr. Chen will be in charge of the medical clinic, and it will also help our Shushan faction to make more money!"

Ning Ruxue nodded. She has no reason to disagree with this point. After all, the development of the sect requires money. Although the Shushan sect has enough money at the moment, if it wants to continue to expand its scale, it must think of ways Making money, these industries alone are not enough to support the rise of a sect.

Now that Ye Wen can think of widening the source of income, it is obvious that he wants to expand the scale of the sect, so he is not ashamed of his current position as the head of the sect.

Thinking of this, Ning Ruxue realized that her yearning for the head of the sect had faded a lot. Maybe it was because Ye Wen did so well that she lost those grievances?

Putting these things aside, Ning Ruxue continued to listen to Ye Wen.

"As for this medical center, besides Dr. Chen, we can also hire some more people. Apprentices are also recruited, but these apprentices must be regarded as outside disciples of our Shushan School. If they are talented or have made contributions to medicine , can also be accepted into the inner sect! If you learn well, it is not impossible to ask him to be in charge of a medical clinic alone."

Everyone continued to nod their heads, they had trained the students, and they couldn't let them go. And when the medical clinic expands in the future, it will definitely not be enough to rely on only one doctor. What's more, Ye Wen obviously meant to open a branch.

"That's all for the time being!" Ye Wen glanced around and found that Li Sen was not there, so he turned to Xu Xian and said, "After Li Sen comes back, ask him to go to the county government office and ask how much the house can be sold. Let Li Senduo be busy with the medical hall, and put aside the inn for now!"

Xu Xian nodded, it should be that the Shushan faction is still not enough talents, and there is only one Li Sen who can go back and forth to do these things.

After a few more instructions, Ye Wen pointed to Liu Muyan and said, "This is my new student, surnamed Liu and named Muyan!"

"student?"

Everyone in the hall was amazed, and even Liu Muyan was taken aback for a moment when he got up to salute before he recovered his senses and returned the salute.

If you say that the Shushan sect opened a sect and accepted apprentices, what are these students? They don't open a martial arts gym! Before Ning Ruxue had time to ask, Ye Wen explained directly: "Liu Muyan is a scholar who is dedicated to learning, but because of some problems in calligraphy, he failed the exams many times. This time, I came back to Shushan with me to learn calligraphy together. Yes, so it's just a student!"

Only then did everyone understand, and the way they looked at Liu Muyan became extremely strange, and Ning Ruxue looked at this man with a monster expression.

Seeing this, Liu Muyan smiled awkwardly and didn't take it seriously, and sat back down after clasping his hands together. Just considering that Master and people who are obviously of the same generation as Master are by his side, he only put half of his butt on the seat, it is more like suffering than sitting.

Xu Xian has been looking at this side for a long time, and he has long felt that this person is bookish, not like a person who learns martial arts, and he is very familiar with the sitting posture. At this time, Ye Wen explained it to him, and he suddenly realized it. After watching it for a while, he couldn't help it anymore, and burst out laughing: "Mr. So formal, just be more casual!"

However, Liu Muyan cupped his hands at Ye Wen, and said to Xu Xian, "Master is by your side, how can you allow the students to do whatever they want?" Then he ignored Xu Xian's words, and just stuck half of his butt on the chair.

Seeing his pedantic appearance, everyone's expressions became even more strange. Even Ye Wen couldn't stand so many rules, so he casually ordered, "Mu Yan, you don't have to be so cautious!"

Liu Muyan hurriedly said yes, but his posture remained unchanged, as if he respected the teacher by doing so.

Seeing him like this, Ye Wen followed him, but continued to talk with the crowd, and then dispersed them. But before everyone left, Ye Wen told Yue Ning and Zhou Zhiruo: "Come to my courtyard later, and I'll see if your two skills have regressed!"

Then he asked Aunt Zhao to arrange rooms for Chen Yizhong and Liu Muyan. After all the orders were finished, there were only three brothers and sisters left in the living room.

"Let's go back to our yard and talk!"

Without outsiders, it seems that there is no need to continue to sit here. Ye Wen walked to the courtyard where he lived, and asked: "I heard that Wang Shu, the master of the Zhengquan sect, died, and the Zhengquan sect also broke up. , what's going on here?"

Xu Xian and Ning Ruxue seemed to have expected that Ye Wen would ask this question when he came back. After looking at each other, Ning Ruxue said directly: "Then Wang Shu was stabbed to death by my sword!"

"Oh?" Ye Wen just let out a soft oh, didn't say much, but waited for the next text.

Seeing that Ye Wen didn't say anything, Ning Ruxue knew that he wanted to hear the details, so she said, "Not long after Senior Brother went down the mountain, the Zhengquan Sect and some small gangs from around came up the mountain together, clamoring to kill our Shushan faction. Get out of Shushan!"

"And then?" Ye Wen was really interested now, he didn't expect to make such a fuss, just thinking about the character of his junior sister, I'm afraid that none of this group of people will end well.

"Then that Wang Shu jumped out and uttered nonsense, and said a lot of unsavory things. I was disgusted by what I heard, and he ended up with a sword..." Ning Ruxue said as if to kill a fly. It's similar to killing flies, and even mentioning it at this time still looks disgusting.

Ye Wen just took a look, and he knew in his heart that Wang Shu must have said some molesting words, which made his junior sister furious and suffered this catastrophe: "Molesting who is not good, you molesting this? I really think my life is too long It's..."

Afterwards, Xu Xian recounted the events of that day, and Ye Wen finally had a general impression of the matter, but at the end he said something with a strange expression: "There is another matter that needs to be decided by the senior brother?"

"What's the matter?" Ye Wen didn't think it would be a big deal, because Xu Xian's words just now let him know that those who came to make trouble that day were basically young people who were squeezed by the Shushan faction and almost had no room to live. Households, and the trouble that day was wiped out by these two with the help of oil heads. At this time, there is really nothing serious around Shushan.

"Brother, do you still remember that Zhang Gui who was punching right?"

"Remember."

Xu Xian continued: "This man saved Zhiruo once that day, and was injured because of it. He is recuperating in our faction right now!"

"What?" Ye Wen was not surprised that Zhang Gui was recuperating in his faction, but that that sentence saved Zhou Zhiruo once. "Tell me about this in detail!"
